It's easy enough to disable it for localhost (hosts = ! 127.0.0.1 for
example). But the problem is probably caused by inadequate DNS resolution
- maybe you've not got reverse resolution for 127.0.0.0/8 or something?

Try

host 127.0.0.1
host localhost

and see what shows up. Then tweak your DNS zone files / hosts file / other
resolution mechanism.
